“Deliver culturally meaningful healthcare where it’s needed most.”
Introduction
At Prescript Recruitment, we place purpose-driven doctors in roles where they can create lasting impact. This is your chance to join our mission in addressing Australia’s regional doctor shortage by providing crucial healthcare services to the Aboriginal community of Doomadgee, located just 140 km from the NT border. Work in a region rich in culture, heritage, and meaning, on the traditional lands of the Gangalidda, Waanyi, Garrawa, and Yunjulla people.
The Position
We’re seeking experienced AMS Locum GPs to join a team delivering culturally appropriate, patient-centered care to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. The role is Monday to Friday only—no weekends or after-hours commitments—so you can focus on meaningful, balanced work.
How to Get There
Doomadgee is a remote but accessible location. Flights from Brisbane will take you via Cairns or Mount Isa, with connections to Burketown or nearby hubs. From there, a short drive or connecting charter flight will bring you to Doomadgee. We fully manage all travel logistics, including flights and car hire, ensuring a stress-free journey.
Dates Available
Start ASAP – End February 2025 (URGENT DATES)
3 March – 15 August 2025
Minimum commitment: 2-3 weeks
Plan ahead and secure a rewarding placement on your 2025 calendar.
Benefits Provided
This role offers highly competitive compensation, with an impressive daily rate of $2000 + GST, ensuring that your vital contributions to this community are well-rewarded. We make the journey hassle-free by covering all travel expenses, including flights, car hire, and transport logistics, so you can focus on your work without distractions. You’ll stay in comfortable, self-contained accommodation fully arranged for the duration of your placement, offering convenience and peace of mind. Additionally, you’ll be part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary team that’s dedicated to improving regional health outcomes, creating a supportive and enriching work environment.
Why Your Work Matters
You won’t just be filling a role—you’ll be keeping healthcare services running, ensuring patients receive timely, quality care, and contributing to long-term community well-being. Prescript’s concierge-level support means you can focus on patient care while we handle all logistics, from flights to credentialing.
What We Require From You
You must hold AHPRA Specialist Registration and FRACGP to be eligible for this role. Experience with Communicare software is essential, as it is the primary tool used in this setting to support efficient patient management. While previous experience in Aboriginal Medical Services (AMS) settings is preferred, we welcome new Fellows eager to contribute to Indigenous healthcare and ready to take on a meaningful, short-term or repeat locum assignment.
